Amusement device including means for processing electronic data in play of a game of chance

1. An apparatus comprising: a card device comprising: a substrate having a front face and a back face; a display coupled to the front face of the substrate; and at least one processor configured to control: receiving information identifying an advertisement, indication of a first indicia and indication of second indicia; determining a first control of the display to display the first indicia and a second control of the display to replace the first indicia with the second indicia; the card device and a plurality of other card devices to be part of a hand in a game; determining an outcome of the hand based on the second indicia and a plurality of respective other indicia displayed on the plurality of other card devices; and determining to display the advertisement on the display based on a result of a given hand in the game that includes the second indicia and at least one other given indicia displayed on at least one other given card device, in which the first indicia is determined based on at least one random event generation, and in which the second indicia is determined based on at least one other indicia associated with the hand to which the first indicia is dealt.

2. The apparatus of claim 1 , in which the at least one processor is configured to control: determining an outcome of a hand of a given game being played using the card device in which both the first indicia and the second indicia are dealt, in which the outcome of the hand of the given game is based on the second indicia rather than the first indicia.

3. The apparatus of claim 1 , in which the at least one processor is configured to control: determining the second indicia such that the given hand results in a winning outcome in response to determining to display the advertisement.

4. The apparatus of claim 1 , in which the at least one random event generation includes at least one of a random number generation, a random event happening, or a pseudo-random number generation.

5. The apparatus of claim 1 , in which the at least one processor is configured to control: determining to display the advertisement by determining that the first indicia results in a losing outcome for the given hand and the second indicia being presented overturns the losing outcome.

6. The apparatus of claim 1 , in which the at least one processor is configured to control: determining the second indicia based on a second random event generation, and in which the first indicia is determined based on at least one other given indicia associated with the hand to which the first indicia is dealt.

7. The apparatus of claim 6 , in which the at least one processor is configured to control: determining the first indicia such that the hand results in a losing outcome.

8. The apparatus of claim 6 , in which the second random event generation includes at least one of a random number generation, a random event happening, or a pseudo-random number generation.

9. The apparatus of claim 6 , in which the at least one processor is configured to control: determining to display the advertisement based on determining that the second indicia results in a winning outcome for the given hand; and determining the first indicia so that the given hand results in a losing outcome in response to determining to display the advertisement.

10. The apparatus of claim 1 , in which the at least one processor is configured to control the first indicia to be part of the hand in the game.

11. The apparatus of claim 1 , in which the display includes a flexible organic light emitting diode display.

12. The apparatus of claim 1 , in which the card device includes a wireless power element configured to provide power from at least one of a time varying magnetic field or RF signal generated by a power source that is not in physical contact with the wireless power element.

13. The apparatus of claim 1 , in which the card device is flexible and has dimensions similar to a playing card.

14. The apparatus of claim 1 , in which the advertisement includes at least one of an image, a video, or text.

15. The apparatus of claim 1 , in which the substrate is bendable without interfering with operation of the display.

16. The apparatus of claim 1 , in which the card device includes a second display coupled to the back face.

17. The apparatus of claim 1 , in which the at least one processor is configured to control: displaying the first indicia and the second indicia to display respective card values to occupy substantially an entirety of the display.

18. A method comprising: controlling, by at least one processor: receiving information identifying an advertisement, indication of a first indicia and indication of second indicia; determining a first control of a display of a card device to display the first indicia and a second control of the display to replace the first indicia with the second indicia, in which the card device includes a substrate having a front face and a back face and the display is coupled to the front face of the substrate the card device and a plurality of other card devices to be part of a hand in a game; determining an outcome of the hand based on the second indicia and a plurality of respective other indicia displayed on the plurality of other card devices; and determining to display the advertisement on the display based on a result of a given hand in the game that includes the second indicia and at least one other given indicia displayed on at least one other given card device, in which the first indicia is determined based on at least one random event generation, and in which the second indicia is determined based on at least one other indicia associated with the hand to which the first indicia is dealt.

19. A non-transitory storage medium configured to store instructions which, when executed by at least one processor, control: receiving information identifying an advertisement, indication of a first indicia and indication of second indicia; determining a first control of a display of a card device to display the first indicia and a second control of the display to replace the first indicia with the second indicia, in which the card device includes a substrate having a front face and a back face and the display is coupled to the front face of the substrate the card device and a plurality of other card devices to be part of a hand in a game; determining an outcome of the hand based on the second indicia and a plurality of respective other indicia displayed on the plurality of other card devices; and determining to display the advertisement on the display based on a result of a given hand in the game that includes the second indicia and at least one other given indicia displayed on at least one other given card device, in which the first indicia is determined based on at least one random event generation, and in which the second indicia is determined based on at least one other indicia associated with the hand to which the first indicia is dealt.
